Washington: Joe Biden on Wednesday (January 20, 2021) took oath as the 46th United States' President. 'Democracy has prevailed', 78-year old Biden said in a speech moments after being administered the oath of office by Chief Justice John Roberts.

Joe Biden said, "Today we celebrate the triumph, not of a candidate, but of a cause — the cause of democracy. The will of the people has been heard, and the will of the people has been heeded. We've learned again that democracy is precious. Democracy is fragile. And at this hour, my friends, democracy has prevailed."
